Kabul Car Bomb, July 7 2008, 08:30 local time. A car bomb went off on a
crowded street Monday near the Indian Embassy in
Afghanistan, killing at least 41 people and wounding more
than 100, officials said.
Authorities said the attack in the capital of Kabul was the
work of a suicide bomber, and it prompted swift condemnation
from the Afghan president, the Indian government, NATO and
the White House.

Among those killed was an Indian defense attaché and a
political consul, said an Indian diplomatic source. The
person spoke to CNN anonymously because he is not authorized
to comment officially.
Also killed were two embassy security guards and six Afghan
police officers, Afghan officials said. Another 139 were
injured.

"It is very important to say that among the dead were
innocent civilians and shopkeepers, women and children,"
said Interior Ministry spokesman Zemarai Bashary.

The formal event was set for 1 hour before to 3 hours after
the attack, 03:00 to 07:00 UTC. The result is a fairly flat
